"Western" diet linked to ADHD

Quote:
Leader of Nutrition studies at the Institute, Associate Professor Wendy Oddy, said the study examined the dietary patterns of 1800 adolescents from the long-term Raine Study and classified diets into 'Healthy' or 'Western' patterns.

"We found a diet high in the Western pattern of foods was associated with more than double the risk of having an ADHD diagnosis compared with a diet low in the Western pattern, after adjusting for numerous other social and family influences," Dr Oddy said
They weren't comparing different nationalities/ethnicities, by the way, all of these kids were Australian. Eating crap makes your body and your brain sick, people, it's just a fact.
